If anyone thought Serena Williams would tame her fashion after last year’s French Open catsuit controversy, she proved them wrong.
Williams, 37, took to the court Monday for her debut match at the 2019 French Open in her designer, superhero-inspired outfit.
Williams' full French Open look, a collaboration between Nike and designer Virgil Abloh, is not your average tennis skirt.It features ruffles, a crop top, black and white print and the cape -- reportedly with the words “Mother, Champion, Queen, Goddess” printed on it in French -- that gives it a superhero vibe.
French Open president Bernard Giudicelli singled out Williams' outfit, saying in an interview, “It will no longer be accepted. One must respect the game and the place," according to The Associated Press. She also used the catsuit as form of inspiration for other moms, writing on Instagram,"Catsuit anyone? For all the moms out there who had a tough recovery from pregnancy—here you go. If I can do it, so can you. Love you all!!"
